That's the first wide shot I've seen of the stands... the home side looks pretty full and the endzone appears to at least have more people in it than it did for EMU, which isn't saying much.

And there's the away stands... not too bad. Again, better than last game. Not to mention, who knows how many people are away from their seats for halftime. Did we at least break 20k? We'll see I guess.

I hope we break 20k

That's the BG points record for a half with 49

Pope has the rushing record for a half now with 202

Total yards record for a half with 551 (300 pass 251 rush)

Cubit down after getting sacked. Hopefully it's not serious, you never want to see anyone badly injured.

Blocked punt, BG ball at the 45.

Also, Omar has been pulled already. Washington is in for now.

Lets hope Luther Pruett is spending more time cussing out his punter than he is watching game film.

Though if he's watching this game, it might take him till Saturday to get his jaw off the floor.

First pass for Baggett is picked of by Piepkow. BG ball around the WMU 20.

Suisham good from 40

So they didn't get anything out of having the ball at the 45? Ugh. Was it all runs up the middle? Did they take a knee?

Lets all hope nothing happens to Omar, Washington doesn't seem ready to take over quite yet. Then again, maybe he doesn't have all the "guns" in there at this stage of the game, either.

Monty just plows through a block for a sack.

Yes, I believe they just tried three runs but not all up the middle.

Nice punt return for BG just now, but there's a flag.

And the flag is...... unsportsmanlike on BG for spiking the ball after the return

who's getting the carries? BJ Lane? Or have they gone further down the depth chart?

"Coach Brandon, what's your thoughts on the 1st half?"

GB: "Well, it's pretty obvious that we're unstoppable. (laughing)"

that's a classic quote for coach Brandon

Did he really say that?

But if he did, he was only speaking the truth!

Yes, he really did say that in response to the exact same comment by the interviewer.

So far, it's just been Pope and Lane.

Looks like the second half will be much slower than the first.

Um, yeah... just a fieldgoal in the third.

hey, FalconFreak made is debut on TV at halftime. First one interviewed by Samantha Basting.

anyone else catch it?

One thing that gets overlooked about Jacobs is that he has only played in about 2/3 of the game for the last six weeks. His stats are awsome as it is, but if he had to play the entire four quarters, it would be eye-popping.

his little Freaklings also got interviewed later in the segment.
